Ridley Motorbike

Ridley Motorbike

There is nothing old-fashioned about a Ridley Motorbike except perhaps the styling. These new designs have modern aluminum frames and 48cc to 70cc motors to propel you. You’ll be scooting around town at speeds approaching 33 mph. Ridley bikes are sent as kits requiring separate motor installation (probably for liability reasons).

Each of the company’s five characteristic designs includes a Cruiselite aluminum monocoque frame with incorporated fuel tank, single speed Shimano coaster brake hub, Quick Brick whitewall tires, wiring and engine mount. The frame alone retails for $1940, plus an additional $559 for a 48cc 2-stroke engine.
